Norwegian Bliss Cruise Reviews

We’ve been to Alaska several times. This was the worst experience we have had in thirty years of cruising. The time spent in ports was laughably short. We stood in line for one hour waiting for a bus ride into Sitka. Arrived in Juneau at 7 AM only to wait in line for another bus and an all-aboard time of 12:30. Why so short? Because the Bliss had to clear its pier for another Norwegian ship ...

I didn’t personally choose this cruise, my niece organized it for the family. The ship is beautiful as was my cabin. Food was good at all the restaurants. The crew was very helpful and friendly. The shore excursions need better descriptions. Most of what we did I would not have chosen had I known more. For example at Icy Strait Point, the gondola over the forest was nice but it was followed ...

Just returned from the cruise.. I did not pick this particular cruise I joined in with my girlfriends who had already booked. We had a great time.  Weather was actually better than expected, except for Ketchikan…rained whole time. Here are some overall observations.  Pros: The ship is beautiful and very clean, the crew worked very had to make your experience special. Lots of great bars and ...

The ship-- Nice ship with panaromic views of the scenery. It was enjoyable watching the whales play enjoying lunch and seeing the views. Embarkation was choatic and we didnt get to our rooms until 230 we were tired and weary by the time we got to our rooms. Disembarkation was a snap and we had a private car waiting for us from the hotel. Cleanliness--The ship was clean and staff cleared dishes ...

Overall it’s a wonderful cruise. The boat is beautiful. Having never done Alaska we chose this boat because we were traveling with a 12 year old and it was newer than many of the other ships going to Alaska and had a lot more fun things to do on the boat. We ate at 4 of the specialty dining restaurants. The BBQ place Qi’s was terrific. Service was great, love country music (although by ...

We chose this cruise because we wanted to go to Alaska. We have sailed about 5 times before but only on carnival so we were very excited. CONS: A few things I didn't, that there were two unlimited bar packages a regular and premium, so we upgraded to that for mostly water and coffee. Definitely felt like that was worth it. We were charged a 20.00 fee daily per person which I didn't ...

This was our12th cruise with NCL, first on a Mega ship. Logistics to board and logistics at ports left a lot to be desired ! It is not a smooth operation First time we booked air with NCL - never again - lousy flight times , bought our own additional return ticket to avoid 1 AM return arrival Food onboard was great except for Cagneys Steakhouse - filet was like shoe leather. Other ...

We chose the Bliss at a last minute review because we wanted to see Alaskas inner passage. Holland did not go to Endicott Arms. We took the $299 excursion to see the Dawson Glacier and Edicott Arms. It was very foggy and too foggy for the Bliss to follow our smaller boat. Thankfully we signed up for the smaller boat. We usually go on small to medium sized cruises and thought the BLISS would ...

My wife and I as grandparents plus with the rest of our family of 9 additional people aged from ages 3 to 41 all just got back from a Jul~Aug NCL Bliss 7 night Alaska Dawes Glacier Juneau and Ketchikan cruise. ONBOARD STAFF: They all kept extremely busy dealing with the large crowds of demanding people and lines but most of the ships staff my family interacted with maintained genuine ...

We wanted personalized service and The Haven did just that. Our concierge Gian, our butlers Peter and Dominique, and every staff member aboard were so friendly and made sure we were well taken care of. We thoroughly enjoyed the production of The Jersey Boys. Keelan Layton, who played Frankie Valli, could not have been a better person for that role. His voice was amazing. Jay Worley and the ...
